Immediate online feedback significantly boosted clinical competence in student nurse anesthetists. This approach enhances nursing education and prepares graduates for complex patient care.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Medical Simulation
- Healthcare Professional Development
Background:
- Increasing disease complexity necessitates highly skilled nurse anesthetists.
- A gap exists between expected and actual graduate clinical competencies.
- Peri-anesthesia care requires advanced proficiency.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the impact of formative assessment and immediate online feedback on student nurse anesthetists' clinical competence.
- To compare the effectiveness of a novel feedback system with traditional methods.
Main Methods:
- An educational intervention involving nurse anesthesia students in intervention and control groups.
- Intervention group received immediate, web-based feedback via Microsoft Power BI dashboard.
- Control group received traditional verbal feedback; both groups assessed using the Common Clinical Assessment Tool (CCAT).
Main Results:
- The intervention group demonstrated significant improvements in clinical competence scores from baseline to endpoint.
- Intervention group mean scores rose from 35.06±1.62 to 79.58±1.02.
- The control group's scores increased from 29.93±1.38 to 62.09±1.47 (p < 0.0001).
Conclusions:
- Formative assessment with immediate online feedback demonstrably enhances clinical competence in student nurse anesthetists.
- This study supports advanced feedback mechanisms in competency-based nursing education.
- Innovative feedback methods can improve anesthesia care quality and patient safety.
